Default Coil spacers

First time jeep owner and new to this site. Which has been very informative.

I'm look at getting the FT 3" lift for my jk, and was wondering in I would need the front spacers to get rid of the factory lean? I have seen a few post here where others have I stalled this lift and now the front is actually higher, but just want to be sure before purchasing.

Thanks for your help.

Just installing the lift got rid of the factory rake for me. If you plan on adding a heavy duty front bumper and winch then it might be beneficial to add a spacer to compensate for the sag caused by those 2 items.

Great, that's what I was looking for. Bumper and winch will be further down the line in the mod list.

Thanks

Also if you plan on adding a rear bumper/tire carrier in the future they will add significant weight to the rear which will cause some sag so a spacer might not be needed
